Haha tell me about it. Sometimes the dog let's some smelly ones off.

Boston used to get a constant itching on his paws and lumps appear which look like boils on his toes. After a lot of research it turns out it was a reaction to the food he was on. Put him on Pero and within a few days, he was much much happier, not scratching and biting his paws and within a week, the lumps had disappeared completely.
The nice thing with breed specific foods as well (if you can find them for your breed of course) is they normally are aimed to deal with breeds specific problems. Like for instance, labradors tend to have joint issues and get arthritis later on in like so the one we buy has a lot of natural stuff in to help with this.

Yep we have this issue lol. The food we feed him is dry but in the evenings for his dinner, mix it in a bit of gravy. Don't seem to cause any smelly issues
Yeah I think I'm definitely going to get her off butchers, we've always had this one because she loves it and it's small pieces cos she's only a small dog.
Emma thanks again some really great information there really appreciate it! :-) going to look into the raw meat some more, think I'll see about ordering a few of the ones your talking about and see how it goes.
Just not nice seeing her so itchy but vets said there's nothing that can really be done about it she's just an itchy dog. She's got no skin conditions or anything so I just agreed.
